Abstract

The importance of user participation in information systems development has received a lot of attention from researchers. While prior research efforts have clarified many issues related to user participation, the reasons behind user’s participation in IS projects are still unexplored. The study raises the question of what are the different motives for user participation in IS project. The investigation uses multivariate data analysis techniques to propose a dimensional representation of user participation motives in the context of IS projects. The results identify five user participation motives i.e. nature of association, techno centric activity, user centric activity, user interest, and project importance. The results of the study contribute to both theory and practice by segregating the different dimensions of user participation motives that may serve as cues in designing effective user integration mechanisms.
识别用户参与信息系统项目的动机
用户参与在信息系统开发中的重要性受到了研究人员的广泛关注。虽然先前的研究工作已经澄清了许多与用户参与相关的问题,但用户参与IS项目背后的原因仍然未被探索。该研究提出了用户参与IS项目的不同动机是什么。该调查使用多元数据分析技术,提出了在IS项目背景下用户参与动机的维度表示。结果确定了五种用户参与动机,即关联的性质、以技术为中心的活动、以用户为中心的活动、用户兴趣和项目重要性。本研究的结果对理论和实践都有贡献,因为它分离了用户参与动机的不同维度,可以作为设计有效用户整合机制的线索。
